A Thief's Gift

By: James Haddock

Narrated by: Daniel Wisniewski

Jamethon Trent, the second son of a low-ranking baron, once again finds himself in the city jail. This is nothing new for Jamethon; after being driven from home by an overbearing father and a bully older brother, he became a thief to survive. Thief he may be, but he only steals from thieves—which, it turns out, is a dangerous profession, as robbed thieves hold a grudge.

Jamethon’s life is never the same after a dying cell mate, a thief mage, gifts him a pair of enchanted gloves. The gloves are keys to what the mage calls the “side realm,” a dimension that exists alongside the real world. The gloves allow the wearer to reach into the side realm and steal whatever they can reach. However, the gloves turn out to be more of a curse than a gift, as fate takes particular delight in making Jamethon’s life . . . exciting at every turn.

Kings, generals, assassins, mages, spies, and thugs—he meets them all, and all seem to want to kill him. On the upside, the gloves does give him an advantage, but before he can use the advantage, he has to learn to use his ghost hands, to enter the side realm to become a ghost walker. Once he achieves that, he’ll be unstoppable.

another good book

it's the same flavor of book he normally puts out. it's pretty light hearted with some good action as normal. it's has a good ending too. if you're a fan of his other books you'll want this one as well.
